Default Headroom XKR-S Conv. vs XJL (2013)

Hi there,

My dad's length is 6'6, and I will grow to 6'10. Is the Jag XKR-S Convertible a problem for me? My dad's got an XJL and we all fit in easily, legroom as well headroom. The XKR-S has got more legroom, but I'm concerned about headroom. Will we fit in comfortably? (Seats all the way to the back, and down. Even the XJ's seat settings aren't fully down and to the back.

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum Gijskerp,

I'll leave it to Convertible owners to advise for certain but it could be a challenge!

I'm 6'7" inseam 35". I had a 2009 XKR vert and was fairly comfortable with the regular seats. I think you will have an issue with the sports seats in the XKR-S. I was in the XKR-S at a Jaguar Alive event and was not comfortable because the width of my shoulders were too restricted by the side bolsters. Also the headrest is not adjustable.
